Former NBA star Gilbert Arenas has been arrested and charged with allegedly running an illegal, high-stakes poker ring out of his home in the Los Angeles area.
Mr Arenas, 43, is charged along with five other defendants, including one Israeli man who prosecutors claim is a "suspected organized crime figure".
Prosecutors have charged him with three federal crimes, including operating an illegal gambling business and making false statements to investigators.
During a court appearance on Wednesday, Mr Arenas pleaded not guilty and was released pending trial after paying a $50,000 bond.
